Taiwan fighter jets intercept Chinese war planes in Taiwan Strait

TAIPEI: Taiwan on Sunday (Mar 31) condemned what it called a "provocative" move from China after two Chinese fighter jets flew past a maritime line amid growing friction between Taipei and Beijing.

Earlier on Sunday, Taiwan scrambled aircrafts to "drive away" two Chinese fighter jets which it said flew past a maritime border in Taiwan Strait, the self-ruled island's defence ministry said in a statement late on Sunday.

The ministry said China's move had "seriously impacted regional safety and stability".

There was no immediate reaction from Beijing.

China has repeatedly sent military aircraft and ships to circle Taiwan during drills in the past few years and worked to isolate the island internationally, whittling down its few remaining diplomatic allies.

The United States last week sent Navy and Coast Guard ships through the Taiwan Strait, as part of an increase in the frequency of movement through the strategic waterway despite opposition from China.

Taiwan is one of a growing number of flashpoints in the US-China relationship, which also include a trade war and China's increasingly muscular military posture in the South China Sea.

China should use force and take control on Taiwan.

Just more humiliation added to the list from the last 70 or so years. Move on..

Beijing and its politburo knows that any pre-emptive or unprovoked action against Taiwan will put China in the same spot as Germany in May 1945.

Humiliation like the USS Decatur running away with its tail between legs after getting rammed by PLAN?

That's what General MacArthur thought too.

LOL!!!!! Stop with your wet dreams.

The ships got about 50 yards from each other. They never collided.

I suppose next you'll say a US fighter jet and pilot are at the bottom of the South China Sea after being rammed by a Chinese turboprop plane.

Once you've launched your air and missile strike, how soon will you launch your amphibious and airborne assault?
